Here are some sample images from my new book: Sunkissed - Sunwear and the Hollywood Beauty 1930-1950. This book is now available from Collectors Press, Portland, Oregon. I am currently engaged on a book pertaining to B-17 bombing in Europe and a book on Glamour Girls. I'll try to keep you updated.

She's so stunning, in fact, that you forget she is on a surfboard in the middle of a swimming pool!  Veronica Lake  Carole Landis in St. Patrick's Day Victory publicity  This is about the smallest sweater you could get in 1945! It is considered a mid-riff and has padded shoulders. The shorts feature a zipper and the shoe design is called sling back.  Gene Tierney looks stunning as shown here on an alternate cover for the book!
